Production references for GOLF+
A short selection of work relevant to showing a game beyond the headset. Each example points to a production technique we could discuss; this is a reference page, not a proposed creative treatment.

Spatial Ops
Capture-led location trailer
Spatial Ops is a capture-led mixed reality reference: a spectator headset frames the player and game world together, alongside live action filmed on a cinema camera.
Camera position & access
A side view can show the golfer and portal together. From inside the portal, a spectator camera could look back into the room. A spectator view from behind the golfer would hide them because of game occlusion. Wider shots can use a stand-in headset; following the ball onto the virtual green needs a spectator view synced to gameplay.

Behind the scenes
A short look at how the camera setup and filmed action came together.
More MR capture examples
Two small-crew examples of headset capture combined with filmed action.
Gears & Goo
One headset captured player POV; another served as the performer’s stand-in for selected wider shots.
Pickle Pro
For multiplayer shots, colocated headsets shared the ball’s position. We also filmed portal mode across real locations.
02
Home Sports
Location shoot + VFX
A live-action home scene with the game-world portal composited in—a technique we can deliver with our VFX collaborators. Some of us worked on Home Sports at Resolution Games; a separate production team made this trailer with Resolution’s internal team.

Angry Birds FPS — behind the scenes
For this Magic Leap game trailer, we filmed a GoPro POV from a headset-wearing mannequin, then keyed blue-screen gameplay into the shot. It gave us a clear view of play while staying faithful to the experience.

Racket Club
Studio + CG composite
This breakdown shows what a more controlled live action and gameplay composite can involve: a studio shoot, tracked camera movement, green screen and VFX.

Production context
That production had developer support and a dedicated branch of the Unity project. For GOLF+, we would first ask whether a PC or PCVR capture build, a spectator view, or only headset recording is currently available.
PRIVATE PRODUCTION REFERENCE
Pico
Earlier this year, we worked on a Pico video made for private viewing. It used green screen, motion control and photoreal CG home environments. A screening may be possible under NDA if this scale is relevant.
WORKING BUDGET RANGES · USD
Three production scales
These are planning figures, not a quote. The capture workflow and final brief will determine the right scope.
A technical capture test can be scoped separately. Deliverables, formats, location, talent, developer access and delivery date will shape the estimate.
A few things to confirm
A more concrete brief will help us choose an approach and refine these budget ranges.
- What, if anything, needs to be delivered in November, and by what date?
- Is the brief for one hero trailer or a wider set of feature, behind-the-scenes and social videos?
- Which formats and channels are needed, and what messaging or motion graphics must they carry?
- How should filmed footage and POV or other gameplay capture work together?
- What capture tools or builds are available today, and what developer support is possible?
We can then confirm capture feasibility, recommend a production scale and discuss how best to work together on the immediate production and any ongoing content needs.
